Question 7 (1 point)
Lin and Clare were standing in the woods near a stream, and each threw a stone up in the air at the same time so that
it would land in the water. The graph represents the height of a stone t seconds after it was tossed up by Lin.
The function f given by f(t) = (-16t – 8) (t - 1) represents the height of a stone t seconds after it was thrown by
Clare. In both functions, height is measured in feet.
